I remember when the E92 came out, I thought it was physical perfection. This thing has just blown it far and beyond. To me the 6 series family is the most beautiful car BMW currently makes but this is the most perfect. Aggressive yet beautiful and it doesn't have those over done rear overhangs like the 6. Really hope the final version doesn't deviate too much from this.

1. BMW's signature front LEDs have always been round, or nearly round (as in the F30). Why would they start mucking around with something that's defined the marque for so long? Audi is a good case of not knowing what to do with front LEDs, they've had pretty much every shape under the sun in the last 2-3 years and it just makes it look like their designers can't decide what to do!

2. I'd imagine those front air scoops under the headlights are waaaaay too aggressive. Members of F30post tend to be enthusiasts and probably like that design (myself included), but your average F32 buyer might not.

3. Cant see the side vents on the front wings being on anything other than an M car.

Seen the LCI 2013 7 series? These lights aren't very different.

Of course, this is why it's designated as "Concept". Those won't make it to production.

Again, part of the "Concept" body work. BMW always had slightly tweak exhaust/front & rear diffusor/side mirrors on the auto show Concepts. They always get toned down for the production car. But the major body work, i.e. headlights/tail lights/overall shape remains to the production car. Not just BMW does it like this, Honda etc.
